A virus, 2020.
This is new.
I wonder what they"ll do.
Have I got to worry, its early days, we are fine.
The Spring Sun shone and we carry on. March and April soon darkened in ways never seen before.
Jobs, money, mortgages, rent, business up the creek
A call came in, its Nan, they only expect a week.
We cannot see you, just call and hope. You hear a voice and try to cope.
Goodbye, its real.
Do not pretend its not.
Social media on fire with hate and blame but it will do nothing to help the pain.
2021, where did that year go.
We are still getting through.
Be strong, be brave, never be complacent.
For we all owe the heroes our lives, just do what you need to do.
Life is no joke, there is no dagger and cloak.
This is a wake up to all, protect your loved ones and so not fall.
Pick up those that need support, the time is now to see this war fought.
The mind and its health must be taken so seriously.
Dont turn your back, its time to fight back.
